Inclusive Nutrition

Overview: Food is much more than energy for our bodies. It is also a cultural heritage. Most diet plans limit our understanding of healthy food by emphasising Eurocentric cuisine. Salmon and kale are healthy...but so are millet and okra. Healthier eating isn't about making swaps here and there to fit someone's culture into a Eurocentric diet. It is about having a deep understanding of the way the person eats, how they cook, their practices around preparing and serving food and helping them to reach their health goals with all those things in mind. This workshop will aim to redefine what healthy eating looks like.
